Instructions
-
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, yeast, and sugar. If desired, add sesame seeds, anise, or fennel to the dry mixture.
-
Add oil and ghee/butter (or just oil) to the dry ingredients.
-
Knead the mixture well for about two minutes, rubbing the fat into the flour until it resembles wet sand.
-
Add the yogurt and warm water to the mixture.
-
Knead the dough for about five minutes until it is soft and pliable. Add more warm water gradually if the dough needs it.
-
Cover the dough and let it proof (rise) for only half an hour.
-
While the dough is proofing, prepare your chosen filling(s). For the savory option, have your salty Baramily cheese ready.
-
For the sweet option, mix cinnamon, sugar, and sesame seeds.
-
Take a portion of the proofed dough. Flatten it slightly. Place your chosen filling (savory cheese or sweet mixture) in the center.
-
Gather the edges of the dough around the filling to form a ball. Gently flatten the ball into a disc shape by pressing down on it.
-
After shaping, you can dip the top of the qoras in a little water and then in sesame seeds for extra flavor and appearance.
-
Arrange the shaped qoras on a baking tray. Let them rest and proof again on the baking sheet for 10 to 15 minutes before baking.
-
Preheat your oven to 180°C. Bake the qoras for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
